Pesticides, pet food preservatives, spice color preservatives, industrial applications, and the aquaculture industry all make extensive use of ethoxyquin. In the years to come, there will likely be a notable increase in the market for ethoxyquin, which has been notably strong in the aquaculture sector.
Nevertheless, despite the FDA’s clearance of ethoxyquin (EQ) use within certain parameters, growth is anticipated to continue steadily in North America. In its most recent study, FMI provides a high-level roadmap of the worldwide ethoxyquin industry.

It covers the factors market players could capitalize on to enjoy sustainable growth through the course of the forecast period. According to FMI, the market’s valuation stood at US$ 230 Mn in 2019.
The continued application of ethoxyquin in animal and fish feed stands as the chief market driver. As a preservative, it has proven high level of efficacy in preventing lipid peroxidation. Ethoxyquin is not intended for human consumption, however, it might be carried ahead by poultry or farmed fish.
FMI offers insights into some of the prevailing market trends. These include:
- Until 2011 ethoxyquin was used as a pesticide, however, the market now mostly capitalizes on its antioxidant properties
- Ethoxyquin is a registered antioxidant that can be used for controlling scald or browning in apples and pears
- Fishmeal and aquaculture sectors outside the EU continue to use ethoxyquin to prevent fishmeal from lipid oxidation
- In some countries, ethoxyquin is used to preserve color in rosemary and chili
- The unprecedented COVID-19 outbreak may put a dent in growth prospects as fisheries struggle to keep up their operations amid lockdown orders
- Pessimistic approaches, banning the use of ethoxyquin in the EU may push market players to scavenge for opportunities in East and South Asia

Market Players Invest in Researches Highlighting Potential Effects of Ethoxyquin as an Effective Preservative
Ethoxyquin is primarily used as an antioxidant in canned pet food and in animal feed. It is a synthetic ingredient used as a preservative to prevent oxidative degradation in fat-soluble vitamins in animal feed.
It is also widely used in the fishmeal industry to prevent lipid oxidation in fish. Being highly unsaturated, fish oil has the tendency of autoxidizing. This could decrease their energy and nutritional value. Stabilizing polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega-6 present in fishmeal using ethoxyquin helps in preserving their fatty acid characteristics during storage and transportation.
Despite being as ubiquitous to the fishmeal and aquaculture sector as food stabilizers are to the food and beverages industry, claims to suggest their negative impact on human health are inhibiting the market’s trajectory. For instance, new regulations implemented in the EU bans the use of ethoxyquin in feed.
To counter this, several leading companies are investing in research and development to cite how ethoxyquin can prove to be a helpful and inexpensive preservative. Such initiatives might spur growth in the market in the coming years.
“In response to recent studies, several leading pet food manufacturers have voluntarily limited EQ concentration in pet foods to prevent possible side effects. Additionally, several companies are developing a natural alternative to synthetic preservatives, which could hamper the market’s expansion to an extent,” revealed a lead analyst at FMI
